Ingredients
- 8 fresh figs - see note 1
- 3 tablespoon butter
- ¼ cup runny honey
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoon shelled pistachio nuts
- mascarpone/creme fraiche/greek yogurt to serve
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC
- Cut a cross in the top of each fig, ensuring that you don't go more than half way down the fig. Use your fingers to push the fig open like a flower (See note 2)
- Place the the figs in a baking dish and add around a teaspoon of butter to each fig.
- Drizzle over the honey ensuring some falls over and into each fig.
- Sprinkle over the cinnamon.
- Grate a little lemon zest over each fig.
- Sprinkle the pistachios around the figs.
- Roast for 7-10 minutes until the figs have softened and the butter has melted into the honey.
- Serve warm with your chosen creamy element.
Notes
- You want to pick ripe figs or ones that are just a little under-ripe. The variety doesn't matter too much, although the green or black ones look the most beautiful when roasted.
